Hobbies and Handicrafts - April 12

The project ideas linked to Hobbies and Handicrafts are some of the best I've seen. Thank you for linking-up each week.

This week I have a huge announcement! My husband's hobby is computer programming, and I'm so proud of him for
completing his latest project. He transformed my skip-counting card game
Speed! into an electronic game which is now available on the iPhone.
Check it out!

Speed! makes skip-counting fun and that makes multiplication easier. Kids love playing this game and so do adults. I created the game six years ago to help my daughter with multiplication. Two years ago I developed it into a physical card game so other families could enjoy playing. In January my husband finished an electronic version of Speed! for the iPad and last week it was released for the iPhone. With three ways to play, we hope you will find one to satisfy you.

Thanks for the feature! I'm going to ask Gary if we can get the Speed ipad version. We have a daughter who has an almost photographic memory for everything but maths and just can't seem to get her facts to stick. Do you think Speed would help?

About Me

I am an American mother of three who spent six years living in Germany. Education has always been a primary focus for me. This blog is packed with fun educational activities for kids. Speed! is a skip-counting game I created in 2011 to help kids learn multiplication. In June 2012 my younger daughter was diagnosed with Leukemia, so that topic has quickly taken over a portion of this blog. You can reach me at
